The ski season just ended for Squaw Valley, USA. ย They opened up just before Turkey Day in November and stayed open until April 26th.
A damn lengthy season considering that Squaw only got 88″ all winter at the base and only 216″ of snow all winter up top. ย Squaw claims to average 450″ of snowfall per year up top, which would place this year somewhere below 50% of average up top.
It was a rough year and this year may go down as the driest snow year on record. ย KT-22 was only open for a month or so. ย Silverado hasn’t been open sinceย 2013.
There were some bright spots. ย A big dump in mid-April got the Chimney open and another dump on closing weekend got the Chimney open a second time.
We’ve had 4 bad years in a row at Squaw Valley. ย Will next year break the streak? ย Or are we in for more? ย We’ll simply have to wait and see.
Thanks for a keeping things open so long on such a rough year, Squaw.
